Degree Nominations
Our region thrives thanks to the contributions of many people who share their knowledge, passion, and energy. Each year, Medicine Hat College recognizes these contributions by presenting an honorary applied degree at our convocation ceremony.
We encourage you to recognize an outstanding citizen who exemplifies community contribution by providing a nomination for this honour. Traits to consider include achievement and distinction in scholarship, the advancement of learning, welfare and social responsibility, creativity and innovation, enterprise, and public service.
Candidates who accept an honorary degree are asked to attend and address the convocation ceremony on June 13, 2025.
The nomination form will be available here by December 2024.
